TV 2014 Ram 2500: 8,380 lbs - 5,060 front - 3,320 rear (fueled up + me)
TV + 5er: 5,060 front - 5,020 rear (axle GAWR 6,000 front 6,500 rear)
GVW: 10,080 (GVWR of 10,000) leaves me 80 lbs overweight plus wife and kid :(
Trailer 2006 FR Wildcat: 11,120 lbs total - 9,420 axles - 1,700 pin
Trailer dry rating: 9,500 total - 1,300 pin
GCVW: 19,500 lbs
I am happy to find out I am within axle ratings and GVWR fully loaded but not so much that I'm over GVWR (in my mind I thought it was 10,500 lbs). I don't have any safety concerns about the GVWR but worry about possible issues with the law. I would rather have more truck than I need and be under the numbers but this is what I have to work with. Honestly I wouldn't want tow anything heavier with this 2500. I added airbags to soften the bucking but doing it all over I'd opt for the 3500, DRW if towing anything bigger long distances.
